Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

The present invention relates to mounting systems for televisions and monitors, and in particular to mounting systems for an array of televisions and monitors.

BACKGROUND

It is increasingly common in public spaces to mount LED, LCD or other flat panel display type televisions or monitors (electronic display devices) to form an overall display that can be easily changed for the purpose of presenting information, advertising, or entertainment. Often, several of these devices are mounted adjacent to form an overall display larger than can be done with a single electronic display.
Prior mounting solutions for multiple electronic displays present certain drawbacks. For example, such mounts can be difficult and cumbersome to assemble. These mounts sometimes do not offer adjustibilty to account for external factors such as walls that are not entirely flat, leading to an unattractive installation. Also, the mounts are not easily scalable, so that different models must be offered depending on the size of the array of electronic displays desired.
What is still needed in the industry is a mounting system for multiple electronic displays that overcomes these drawbacks.

SUMMARY

The present invention provides a mounting solution for arrays of electronic display devices that addresses the drawbacks of prior mounts. According to embodiments of the invention, scalably sized modular mounting frames can be easily assembled and linked together to form a mounting system that can accommodate multiple vertically and horizontally adjacent electronic displays. The system can have adjustable mounting legs enabling correction for walls, to which the system will be mounted, that are not entirely flat and also enabling positioning of the overall system within a range of adjustment closer or further away from the wall.
The modular configuration of the mounting system can provide for vertical attachment of multiple electronic displays to a single module, and for vertical and horizontal attachment of multiple modules. The disclosed modular system enables multiple displays to be mounted in a virtually unlimited number of shapes as well as the standard square and rectangular arrays.
Elongated attachment slots enable an electronic display to be moved laterally while adjacent electronic displays are being installed so that the electronic displays do not necessarily contact each other during initial installation so as to prevent damage to the individual electronic displays. The elongated attachment slots also enable horizontal adjustment of the electronic displays to compensate for tolerance buildups so as to ensure the displays can be slid together tightly in the horizontal (lateral) direction during final installation.
In some embodiments, a pusher mechanism can be included that will push against the display fasteners during installation so as to enable the electronic display devices to be pushed tightly together and inhibit unauthorized removal. In some embodiments, slots can placed at key-points on the mount to enable a tape measure to be used during installation, thereby easing measurements during installation.
In an embodiment, a system for mounting multiple electronic display devices to a wall of a structure includes a first pair of spaced-apart brackets, each bracket presenting a front flange defining a plurality of slots, each slot adapted to receive a fastener coupled to an electronic display so as to attach the electronic display to the bracket, and a plurality of mounting feet operably coupled to each of the spaced-apart brackets, each of the mounting feet adapted to attach to the wall and defining a slot enabling the mounting foot to shift parallel to a plane of the wall, each of the plurality of mounting feet being separately shiftable relative to the spaced-apart brackets so as to enable the bracket to be selectively adjusted for position in a direction perpendicular to the wall.
According to embodiments, each of the plurality of mounting feet is shiftable relative to the spaced-apart brackets with an adjustment screw assembly. The slots defined in each mounting foot can be teardrop shaped, and the slots defined in the spaced-apart brackets can be teardrop shaped.
In embodiments, the system can further include a second pair of spaced-apart brackets, each of the second pair of brackets presenting a front flange defining a plurality of slots, each slot adapted to receive a fastener coupled to an electronic display so as to attach the electronic display to the second pair of spaced-apart brackets and a plurality of mounting feet operably coupled to each of the second pair of spaced-apart brackets, each of the mounting feet adapted to attach to the wall and defining a slot enabling the mounting foot to shift parallel to a plane of the wall, each of the plurality of mounting feet being separately shiftable relative to the spaced-apart brackets so as to enable the bracket to be selectively adjusted for position in a direction perpendicular to the wall, the second pair of spaced-apart apart brackets operably coupled to the first pair of spaced-apart brackets in a horizontally or vertically adjacent relation.
In embodiments, the first or the second pair of spaced-apart brackets can receive one, two, three, or four electronic displays, and can be coupled together vertically or horizontally to form arrays of electronic displays of various shapes.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

There is depicted in FIGS. 1-11 a mounting system according to embodiments of the invention. A mount 20 for a single (1×1) electronic display device depicted in FIGS. 1a and 8 generally includes brackets 22, 23, cross-braces 24, and mounting foot assemblies 26. Brackets 22, 23, define teardrop slots 28 in front facing flanges 30. Side facing flanges 32 of brackets 22, 23, define apertures receiving fasteners 34, and keyhole slots 36. Cross-braces 24 are secured to each of brackets 23, 23, with fasteners 38, and hold brackets 22, 23, in a parallel, spaced apart relation.
As depicted in FIGS. 2 and 9, mounting foot assemblies 26 generally include mounting bracket 40 defining keyhole slot 42 on lateral flange 44, and adjustment slots 46 on perpendicular flange 48. Adjustment block 50 is rigidly attached to mounting bracket 40 with fasteners 52, and receives adjustment screw assembly 54. Mounting foot assemblies 26 are adjustably coupled to brackets 22, 23, with adjustment screw assembly 54, and with fasteners 34 slidably received in adjustment slots 46 such that turning adjustment screw assembly 54 causes lateral flange 44 to be moved closer or further away from front facing flanges 30, depending on the direction of rotation of adjustment screw 54.
In use, mount 20 can be attached to a wall with fasteners (not depicted) through keyhole slots 42. The head of fastener already projecting from the wall can be advanced through round portion 56 of slot 42 and then mount 20 moved downward so that the fastener moves through neck portion 58 and into lateral slot portion 60. From there, mount 20 can be slid horizontally, guided by lateral slot portion 60 so that mount 20 can be adjusted for lateral position on the wall. The position of front facing flanges 30 can be adjusted relative to the wall by turning adjustment screw 54. As there are generally four mounting feet 26 for mount 20, the front facing flanges 30 can be adjusted to enable an attached screen to be adjusted in roll and pitch relative to the wall and other displays mounted adjacent.
Screen 62 is attached to mount 20 with-fastening buttons 64. Each fastening button 64 has head portion 66 and neck portion 68. Head portion 66 is advanced through rounded portion 70 of teardrop slot 28, and screen 62 moved downward so that neck portion 68 moves through narrow portion 72 and into lateral slot 74. From there, screen 62 can be slid laterally with neck portion 68 guided in lateral slot 74. The position of fastening button 64 in teardrop slot 28 can be adjusted and secured with pusher screw 76 received in apertures provided in brackets 22, 23, and using stop block 78 as depicted in FIG. 3.
The system is modular and scalable for multiple vertically mounted displays as depicted in FIGS. 1a-1c . Brackets 22, 23, can be made an extended length with teardrop slots 28 located at appropriate positions on front facing flanges 30 so as to enable two, three, or more displays to be mounted in a vertical array. Also, multiple mounts 20 can be positioned vertically with fasteners in vertical slots 80 to link the mounts together vertically as depicted in FIG. 4b . In addition, mounts 20 can be linked horizontally as depicted in FIGS. 4a, 6a, 6b, and 7a , with fasteners 82 through keyhole slots 36 and received in link bars 84. In this way, virtually unlimited configurations of horizontal and vertical arrays of screens can be achieved.
There is depicted in FIGS. 12-27 b alternative embodiments of a mounting system according to embodiments of the invention. A mount 120 for two electronic display devices, as depicted in FIGS. 12 and 25, generally includes brackets 122, 123, cross-braces 124, and mounting foot assemblies 126. Brackets 122, 123, define teardrop slots 128 in front facing flanges 130. Side facing flanges 132 of brackets 122, 123, define apertures receiving fasteners 134, and keyhole slots 36. Cross-braces 124 are secured to each of brackets 123, 123, with fasteners 138, and hold brackets 122, 123, in a parallel, spaced apart relation.
As depicted in FIGS. 12, 13, and 25, mounting foot assemblies 126 generally include mounting bracket 140, and attachment portion 141, with mounting bracket 140 defining teardrop slot 142 on lateral flange 144. Attachment portion 141 is secured to mounting bracket 140 with fasteners 143. Adjustment slots 146 are defined in perpendicular flanges 148 of attachment portion 141. Adjustment block 150 is rigidly attached to mounting bracket 140 with fasteners 152, and receives adjustment screw assembly 154 with adjustment nut 155 threaded on adjustment screw 157. Mounting foot assemblies 126 are adjustably coupled to brackets 122, 123, through adjustment screw 154, and with fasteners 134 slidably received in adjustment slots 146 such that turning adjustment nut 155 on adjustment screw 154 causes lateral flange 144 to be moved closer or further away from front facing flanges 130, depending on the direction of rotation of adjustment nut 155.
In use, mount 120 can be attached to a wall with fasteners (not depicted) through teardrop slots 142. The head of such a fastener already projecting from the wall can be advanced through lower portion 156 of slot 42 and then mount 120 moved downward so that the fastener moves through neck portion 158 and into lateral slot portion 160. From there, mount 120 can be slid horizontally, guided by lateral slot portion 160 so that mount 120 can be adjusted for lateral position on the wall. The position of front facing flanges 130 can be adjusted inwardly and outwardly relative to the wall by turning adjustment nut 155. As there are generally four mounting feet 126 for mount 120, the front facing flanges 130 can be adjusted to enable an attached electronic display to be adjusted in roll and pitch relative to the wall and other displays 62 mounted adjacent.
As with the embodiments depicted in FIG. 1-11, electronic display 62 is attached to mount 120 with fastening buttons 64. Each fastening button 64 has head portion 66 and neck portion 68 as depicted in FIG. 5a . Each head portion 66 is advanced through rounded portion 170 of teardrop slots 128, and screen 62 moved downward so that neck portion 68 moves through narrow portion 172 and into lateral slot 174. From there, screen 62 can be slid laterally with neck portion 68 guided in lateral slot 174. The position of fastening button 64 in teardrop slot 128 can be adjusted and secured with pusher screw 176 received in apertures provided in side facing flanges 132 of brackets 122 or 123 as depicted in FIG. 21a-21d . A stop fastener 179 can be threaded in to limit lateral travel to a predetermined range as depicted in FIGS. 26a and 26 b.
The system is scalable for multiple vertically mounted displays as depicted in FIGS. 12, 14, 15, and 16. Brackets 122, 123, can be made an extended length with teardrop slots 128 located at appropriate positions on front facing flanges 130 so as to enable two, three, four, or more displays to be mounted in a vertical array. Also, multiple mounts 120 can be connected vertically with brackets 190 secured with fasteners 192 as depicted in FIGS. 20a and 20 b.
In addition, mounts 20 can be linked horizontally with brackets 194 as depicted in FIG. 19. As such, a virtually unlimited variety of overall array shapes of electronic displays can be achieved, with non-limiting exemplary embodiments depicted in FIGS., 17 a, 17 b, 18 a, 18 b, 23 a, 23 b, 24 a, and 24 b.
In embodiments, slots 200 can be provided in brackets 122, 123, and/or cross-braces 124 to receive the perpendicular end 202 of a common tape measure 204, as depicted in FIGS. 22a-22d . Slots 200 can be located at the approximate mid-point of attached electronic displays 62 to enable easy measurement relative to a floor, ceiling, or adjacent walls of a structure and thereby enable precise positioning of the electronic displays.
As depicted in FIGS. 27a and 27b , side panels 206 can be attached to system 120 with brackets 208 to provide for a finished appearance to the installation.
